LAS VEGAS, NV – The sale of the Anthem Country Club home of former Las Vegas Raiders head coach Josh McDaniels for $4.8 million was the highest-priced residential transaction in the valley in May, according to new real estate figures that have just been released.

Despite the seemingly impressive payday, McDaniels actually came out on the short end of the deal, selling his home for a loss after initially purchasing it two years ago for $4.95 million.

The residence, located on a half-acre in Henderson’s high-end Anthem master-planned community, is a one-story, Santa Barbara-style home originally built in 2005 that offers 6,705 square feet of space and has four bedrooms, six baths, an office and a three-car garage.

The home boasts a wide array of lavish and high-end amenities, including a movie theater, billiard room, wet bar with pocket doors, and wine chillers. The large, well-equipped kitchen is designed for entertaining guests and features a walk-in pantry, butler’s pantry, and breakfast nook, marble flooring and a Sonos® surround sound system controlled by an iPad that includes both indoor and outdoor speakers.

In addition, the extensive backyard includes a covered patio, pool, spa, built-in barbecue area with a fireplace, and views of the nearby golf course.

The sale marked the end of McDaniels’ residency in Las Vegas following his public firing as the Raiders’ head coach halfway through the 2023 NFL season. At the time of his ouster, he had only helmed the Raiders for less than two years, but during his tenure he was criticized for his team’s inability to hold leads and close out games; he finished his time with the Raiders with a record of 9–16.

Before purchasing his Anthem Country Club home, he had previously considered living in Southern Highlands.

LAS VEGAS, NV – According to Clark County property records, Lennar Corporation, one of the largest home construction companies in the United States, has bought 37 acres of land in Henderson for $45 million from California-based Trilogy Land Holdings LLC.

It is expected that Lenar will develop the vacant land – the sale of which closed on March 1 – into a single-family residential community. The property is located in west Henderson, just south of the Henderson Executive Airport and the master-planned community of Inspirada, close to the McCullough Range and Black Mountain.

Based out of Miami-Dade County in Florida, Lennar Corporation is the second-largest homebuilder in the nation based on the number of homes sold as of 2023, with 68,817 recorded closings; in that same year, the company was ranked 119th on the Fortune 500. Lennar Corporation’s share price has soared 235 percent in the last half decade, with a 17 percent gain in just the last three months alone.

Henderson, Nevada is heralded as one of the fastest-growing municipalities in the nation, seeing a large explosion recently in both the residential and commercial real estate industries; in January, the city approved plans submitted by Woodside Homes of Nevada for the development of two residential subdivision projects – dubbed Cadence Acacia and Cadence Meridian – on nearly 17 acres of land, for a total of 160 lots.

Development in Henderson has also commenced on The Canyon at Ascaya, which upon completion will offer 51 multimillion-dollar residences designed and built by Las Vegas luxury developer Blue Heron, and will feature impressive views of the Las Vegas Valley, including the famed Las Vegas Strip. The homes in The Canyon at Ascaya will be comprised of single-floor, three-to-four-bedroom residences ranging in size from 3,391 square-feet to 4,407 square-feet, and owners will be able to enjoy a wide range of high-end amenities.

LAS VEGAS, NY – A Delaware-based investment group has reportedly purchased a 34-acre industrial park located in North Las Vegas for $115 million.

The Mosaic Commerce Center – a Class A, mid-bay industrial project comprised of nine buildings totaling 582,510 square-feet – has been sold by Las Vegas-based real commercial real estate firm The Mosaic Companies to KW FUND VII- NORTH BELT ROAD, LP, a subsidiary of Beverly Hills-based real estate investment company Kennedy Wilson.

Construction on the Mosaic Commerce Center – facing Interstate 15 and located about six miles south of Apex Industrial Park – was completed in July 2023 in order to meet the growing demand in North Las Vegas for mid-bay projects for office space and warehouse use. At the time of its sale, the complex was fully-leased with a total of 21 tenant companies, most of whom had moved into the facility in July and August of last year.

The Mosaic Companies issued a statement announcing the sale, with the company’s Founder, Vincent Schettler, saying that KW FUND VII- NORTH BELT ROAD, LP is a strong player in the real estate marketplace and should experience great success with their newest acquisition.

Today, we are delighted to announce the successful sale of Mosaic Commerce Center. This project exemplifies our teams’ dedication to excellence and innovation in the world of industrial real estate,” Schettler said. “We are thrilled that our buyer recognized the value in this project, and we look forward to seeing their continued success of this remarkable industrial complex.”

The sale did not encompass all of the Mosaic Commerce Center’s property; Mosaic Companies still owns approximately four acres, upon which they are planning to develop two service hotels and retail centers. The groundbreaking on the first hotel is scheduled to take place by the end of 2024.

LAS VEGAS, NV – According to Clark County property records, JEN Partners – a real estate investment firm based out of New York – recently purchased 54 acres of underdeveloped, residential-zoned land in south Las Vegas for $33.5 million, and speculation is running rampant that the property will be used for a massive residential development.

The land in question is located within the township of Enterprise, just west of the Southern Highlands community; the previous owner was Southern Highlands Investment Partners, and neither they nor JEN Partners responded to queries from local media regarding the sale.

JEN Partners, according to the firm’s website, specializes in “residential land and real estate opportunities,” and has previously built single-family residential developments in such places as Florida, Arizona and Texas. Overall, they have over 150 active or fully realized residential real estate transactions across the country, although their new land acquisition in south Las Vegas will represent their first project in the state of Nevada, provided if JEN Partners indeed chooses to develop it.

Enterprise is an unincorporated town founded on December 17, 1996 and is known as an up-and-coming township as well as one of the fastest growing communities in the United States; as of the 2020 U.S. census, the population of Enterprise was 221,831, a significant increase from the 2000 census that put that number at just 14,676.

Given its degree of rapid growth in recent years – mainly attributed to the development of the 215 Beltway, which connects the Summerlin and Henderson communities and provides easy access to the airport and the Las Vegas Strip – experts say that Enterprise would rank only behind Las Vegas, Henderson and North Las Vegas in terms of the largest cities in the county if it were to incorporate itself today.

Enterprise has recently seen a large boom in building in terms of single-family residential developments, multifamily and apartment construction, including commercial real estate.

LAS VEGAS, NV – According to Clark County property records recently unearthed, 1.62 acres of land on the Las Vegas Strip were clandestinely purchased by MGM Resorts International in May 2023 for $54 million.

Located in-between the Bellagio and the Cosmopolitan, just south of the iconic fountains, the property in question had previously been owned by Steve Wynn, who at the time also owned the Bellagio, Mirage, and Treasure Island. MGM bought those venues from Wynn in 2000, and in the process inherited the real estate developer and art collector’s rights to the 1.62-acre plot of land – currently zoned as a vacant lot – that it later went on to purchase in May.

The casino giant has not yet publicly revealed their plans for the plot of land, but experts find the purchase intriguing given the fact that MGM does not own the majority of the property upon which their resorts and casinos are located. For example, many of the MGM owned and operated casino hotels on the Las Vegas Strip are actually located on land owned by VICI Properties.

Since the news of last year’s sale has been publicly revealed, many in the real estate industry have wondered what MGM‘s plans for the property could be; however, experts say is unlikely that it will be used for another hotel or casino, given the relatively small size of the plot. Likewise, it is not expected to be used to create any sort of pedestrian connection between the Bellagio and the Cosmopolitan given the fact a covered walkway leading to an escalator already exists for that purpose.

Some experts say that the most likely use for the land on part of MGM is to sit on it while its value appreciates – typical of the finite amount of real estate on the Strip – with the intention of eventually selling it off to another entity to develop.

LAS VEGAS, NV – A vacant office building in the city of Las Vegas has been purchased by the Las Vegas Valley Water District (LVVWD) for $21.3 million from the Class B asset’s previous owner, Meadow View Associates and BoydT2.

Located at 330 South Valley View Boulevard, the two-story, 166,409-square-foot building – which was fully vacant at the time of the sale – is located on approximately 10 acres of land. It was originally built in 1983 and has 870 parking spots.

The sellers were represented by Cushman & Wakefield and two other brokers, according to property records.

The building had been previously used by Centel/Sprint and, according to LVVWD spokesperson Bronson Mack, will now serve a number of different and useful purposes, including enhancing water utility operations and the district’s communications infrastructure. In addition, Mack noted that the property would also make an excellent location for a new groundwater well.

As the LVVWD replaces existing operational wells that are reaching the end of the service lifecycle, it is necessary to replace them and this site provides a good location for production wells to access the groundwater system,” he said.

Marlene Fujita Winkel of Cushman & Wakefield said in a statement announcing the sale that the building and its property should be very useful for the LVVWD, as it will add to the district’s already impressive portfolio of land ownership in Southern Nevada.

The property also resides just a few miles west of downtown Las Vegas and the World Market Center and is proximate to two premier master-planned communities, Summerlin and Green Valley,” he said. “It is well-suited for the real estate and locational needs of the LVVWD and the property it currently owns next door.”

The purchase goes along with the LVVWD’s ownership of 251 acres right across the street, which is comprised of administrative buildings, operation support, utility infrastructure, public education buildings, wells, watered storage tanks, and Springs Preserve, a 180-acre land preserve that is open to the public.

LAS VEGAS, NV – The 299-room SpringHill Suites by Marriott Las Vegas Convention Center has been sold for approximately $75 million to real estate investment trust (REIT) Apple Hospitality, as per a joint announcement issued by the two parties.

Located next to the Las Vegas Convention Center at 2989 Paradise Road, Springhill Suites Las Vegas originally opened in October 2009 and boasts over 10,000 square-feet of flexible indoor and outdoor meeting space, in addition to a pool located on the rooftop, a full fitness center, an onsite market and restaurant that is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and a massive carpark that comes in at a full seven stories.

The $75 million paid by Apple Hospitality translates to approximately $251,000 per each of the hotel’s 299 rooms.

Apple Hospitality’s President of Real Estate and Investments, Nelson Knight, said that the acquisition of Springhill Suites was part of his firm’s ongoing plan to further entrench themselves in the ever-evolving and growing tourism trade in Las Vegas, citing recent hot new editions to the city’s entertainment and sporting scenes.

Las Vegas, well known as a premier gaming and entertainment destination, has dynamically expanded in recent years with the arrival of major league sports teams, the Sphere and Formula 1 racing, to capture an even larger segment of leisure travel demand,” he said. “In addition to robust leisure demand, the hotel benefits from its proximity to the newly expanded Las Vegas Convention Center, one of the largest and busiest convention centers in the world, and its own indoor/outdoor function space.”

Knight also noted that the $75 million that Apple Hospitality paid to acquire SpringHill Suites was a bargain considering the significant return on their investment that is expected.

The attractive purchase price is just under a 10.7x multiple on trailing twelve-month hotel EBITDA,” he said. “With a strong recovery in overall demand, positive supply dynamics, the recent development and expansion of large-scale entertainment and convention venues, and the upcoming Super Bowl LVIII, we expect performance for Las Vegas and for this hotel to continue to strengthen.”

LAS VEGAS, NV – Located within a gated community of Las Vegas’ Summerlin neighborhood, a lavish single-story house hit the market for nearly $2.1 million and quickly sold, signifying how luxury sales in Southern Nevada have remained relatively unaffected by the ongoing inflation and high mortgage interest rates impacting the rest of the country.

Situated within Onyx Point – a gated community at the Cliffs of Summerlin – the home, located at 10020 Terrastone Drive, first listed for $2.075 million and is comprised of 3,490 square feet of living space spread out over four bedrooms, four baths, an office, a three-car garage, and a large backyard.

According to realtor Sarah Gabany, who is representing the seller, the residence was designed with an eye for detail and features numerous amenities and contemporary flourishes, such as 12-foot exposed beam ceilings, porcelain tile with a wooden finish, and several fireplaces.

This single-story home seamlessly combines modern sophistication with natural charm all while being set along Summerlin’s cliff line,” Gabany said. “Situated in an exclusive neighborhood of just 60 homes, it provides a quaint and strong sense of community where neighbors know each other.”

Features include a courtyard with covered entry; an open concept layout with multislider doors that provide a seamless conduit between the indoors and outdoors; a living room with an electric tile fireplace; a chef’s kitchen with a 12.5-foot quartz waterfall island, stainless steel appliances – including a double oven and oversized refrigerator – and white tile backsplash; and a three-car garage with electric vehicle chargers, storage racks, and multiple cabinets.

Meanwhile, the main bathroom offers marble floors, granite countertops, and dual vanities, in addition to a floor-to-ceiling marble tiled shower and soaking tub.

While the furniture is not included in the asking price, interested buyers are able to negotiate to potentially add it to the sale for an additional fee.

The high sale price for this home is yet another example of how the luxury housing market in Las Vegas has defied recent trends; whereas home sales have slowed overall amid the economic turmoil that is gripping the nation, the luxury market in Southern Nevada has not only held steady, but shown signs of continued growth.

The home sold on December 12th, for $2,000,000.

LAS VEGAS, NV – A massive mega-mansion compound in Las Vegas’ affluent Spanish Trail community that boasts a super-impressive 25 bedrooms and 46 bathrooms has been sold for a whopping $25 million. The sale ties the record for the most expensive home ever sold in the region, which was originally set as a 15,000-square–foot residence in Henderson that sold for $25 million in 2021. 

The compound – which was previously built for and owned by Jefri Bolkiah, the Prince of the tiny Asian country of Brunei – comes in at 110,320-square-feet and is situated on a 16-acre plot of land located at 99 Spanish Gate Drive.

The compound has 10 interconnected buildings, with the main house coming in at 37,466-square-feet with five bedrooms and eight baths. There’s also a 47,367-square-foot athletic club/pool house with an indoor badminton and squash courts, a hotel-sized spa and gym, indoor pool, bowling alley and nightclub.

In 2007, singer Michael Jackson had reportedly moved into Bolkiah’s compound and stayed there for some time. 

Construction of the property originally began in 1996 and is approximately 90 percent complete; there has been no additional development of the compound since 1999, according to the listing agent. While the home is completely enclosed and finished, appliances aren’t included and some degree of detailed finish work isn’t complete; however, otherwise, the home is mostly completed.

When asked why construction wasn’t finished, the listing agent noted that when Bolkiah built it, he had “different expectations” regarding Las Vegas and ultimately ended up not moving there. 

The listing agent has not named the now-former owners of the property, noting that he has not dealt with them directly and instead has been conducting business through their lawyers and financial advisors; the reason the property was put on the market is unknown, he said.

LAS VEGAS, NV – Multiple parcels of land in the Las Vegas Valley, totaling 589 acres, have been sold by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM) – an agency within the United States Department of the Interior responsible for administering federal lands – for the impressive sum of $93 million. 

BLM had previously announced that they would be auctioning off some of their land in the Las Vegas Valley this past July, with the federal agency being allowed to do so thanks to the Southern Nevada Public Land Management Act of 1998. 

While the majority of the parcels sold were relatively small in size, one parcel was particularly large – coming in at 505 acres and located east of Red Rock Canyon and West of Interstate 215 – and was purchased by Las Vegas real estate developer Lawrence Canarelli for $55 million. 

While Canarelli has not publicly stated what he intends to use the land for, experts note that due to its large size and how other properties in the area have been utilized in recent years, it will most likely be utilized for housing projects. 

The U.S. Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management issued a press release announcing that the property sold was acquired by its new respective owners by way of a “competitive” online auction process. 

The sale of this public land within a congressionally-designated disposal boundary will generate funding to enhance recreation opportunities, promote species and habitat conservation and reduce the threat of wildfire in locations across the state,” the release said. 

BLM noted that 85 percent of the proceeds from the sale will be utilized mainly for projects to benefit the public, such as developing parks and trails as well as federal land capital improvements, purchasing land encountering environmental issues, landscape restoration projects, and the reduction of hazardous fuels. In addition, 5 percent will go towards the Nevada General Education Fund and the remaining 10 percent will go to the Southern Nevada Water Authority. 

An additional 225-acre parcel of land that was originally slated to be included in this auction will be put up for sale at a later date, according to the BLM, which currently owns 48 million acres in Nevada, or approximately 67 percent of the state.

LAS VEGAS, NV – MIG Real Estate LLC has announced the sale of Pecos Plaza, a 124,000-square-foot medical and office campus in Henderson, Nevada, to new owner Woodside Health for $26.7 million. The seller was represented in the transaction by Cushman & Wakefield and JLL, reports say.

Originally built in 2006, Pecos Plaza is a Class B medical and office campus that is anchored by a two-story building with an additional seven single-story medical and professional office buildings, all located on a 7.62-acre plot of land at 9005-9089 South Pecos Road. The plaza is situated nearly seven miles from downtown Henderson, just over 18 miles from Las Vegas, and has access to Interstate 215.

Reports indicate that the campus is currently 93 percent occupied, with the property anchored by multiple retail establishments such as Michaels, Starbucks, Denny’s and UPS, among others. The medical facilities located on the campus are Belle Medical, Las Vegas Urology, Serenity Dental and Innovative Pain Care Center, in addition to several more.

MIG Real Estate LLC had originally acquired Pecos Plaza in 2014, having purchased the campus for $17.5 million from Wells Fargo Bank.

New Pecos Plaza owner Woodside Health has an extensive history when it comes to the medical field. The company was originally founded in 2008, and this newest purchase represents their 48th acquisition overall, giving them a combined total of over 2.5 million square feet – about twice the area of Chicago’s Millennium Park – in healthcare assets across the country, spread out over Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Nevada, Ohio and Texas.

Earlier in 2023, Woodside – as part of a $140 million transaction – recapitalized a medical office portfolio spread out over four states, consisting of 10 properties with a combined size of 423,000-square-feet. And in June 2022 Woodside purchased Optum Center – a 81,907-square-foot medical office building anchored by UnitedHealthcare – in Phoenix, Arizona for $20 million.

LAS VEGAS, NV – The former chairman and CEO of MGM Resorts International, Jim Murren, has sold his Las Vegas mansion – dubbed “Skyspace” – for over $15 million, making it the second highest price that a home has fetched in the Valley this past September, following the sale of actor Mark Walberg’s Summit Club bungalow for $16.65 million. 

Murren had previously listed the residence for sale in July 2020 – at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic – for $10.5 million, although he later removed it from the market. He eventually relisted it for $17.75 million, with the home selling last month for $15.95 million. 

Skyspace is a 13,000 square-foot home situated on 1.5 acres on Painted Feather Way within the Summerlin community and golf club, offering views of the Las Vegas Strip via a series of wall-to-wall windows. It has five bedrooms, eight baths, and a separate one-bedroom guest house.  

The mansion was created with a reverence for art and philosophy; there are several corner spaces that allow for solitary reflection, indoor bamboo and pine trees, and a Zen garden outside the main bedroom laden with multiple pathways that could take upwards of 45 minutes to traverse. The house also contains numerous amenities, including an indoor basketball court, gym, movie theater, wine cellar, pool, spa, and a huge open-concept kitchen. 

“Skyspace” derives its name from a large art installation that essentially turns the home into a “sensory experience” by utilizing high-tech equipment to create the illusion of being in space by making use of natural light provided at both sunrise and sunset. The equipment for this experience was not part of the home’s asking price when Murren originally listed it in 2020 but was available for purchase separately; it is unknown if it was included in September’s sale. 

Mr. Murren, who resigned from MGM in February 2020, has stated that he and his wife are planning on remaining in Las Vegas but simply wanted to downsize to a home more suitable for their needs, as apparently Skyspace afforded them more space than was necessary.
